Recall 17V211000
Service Brakes, Air — Great Dane · reported 27 Mar 2017 · 34 vehicles potentially affected
What's wrong
Great Dane Trailers (Great Dane) is recalling certain 2018 Everest SS refrigerated trailers. A plug for the front brake chamber service port may not have been properly tightened, possibly reducing the service brake pressure.
The risk
A reduction of service brake pressure can lengthen the distance needed to stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Great Dane will tighten the diagnostic tee pipe plug or remove the tee. The recall began on April 28, 2017. Owners may contact Great Dane customer service at 1-912-232-4471.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
Vehicles covered by this recall

Is this car's recall fixed?
Recall repairs are free at any franchised dealer, for the life of the vehicle. A CarLogs report shows the recall status for a specific VIN as reported by the manufacturer — whether it's open or repaired, and whether the fix is available yet.
